#cv grimlock

— Grimlock is very touchy in general. He shows his affection through touch more than anything else. The mech's always got his servos on you; around your hip struts or over your shoulder plating.

— So its no surprise that he likes cuddles. A lot. He loves them. Grimlock loves having your frame tangled up with his. Especially in private. The two of you laying on your shared berth, his blue optics focused onto your face with his frame curled to your side as his servos keep you close to him while you look up into the ceiling and sigh contently.

— Would he little spoon or big spoon? Truth is, be doesn't mind either. Grimlock would like for his touch to be reciprocated though and not just have you in his servos as some kind of doll. Any position that allows him to have his servos all over you and your servos all over him is optimal.

— Grim doesn't really know why he likes having you so close all the time. Maybe its the comforting warmth of your systems? Or the soft hum of your mechanisms & the thrum of your spark? Perhaps your EM field mixing with his own? He hasn't the faintest clue. Grimlock can be a little clingy at times, but its mostly because of the fact that its been so long since he's had you by his side. He was basically stranded on Earth for millions of years without any physical contact from anyone.

— But his love for physical touch can extend into him mech-handling you. He'll lift you up to surprise you when he thinks you haven't noticed him, or maybe he'll flat out just pick you up and walk away. When things go south, he might literally just carry you off and run for the hills. Also might hold you a little closer when he feels jealous/possessive.

— Funnily enough, while he isn't slightly embarrassed about being a little physical with you publicly, Grimlock gets a little flustered when you say sparkfelt romantic things to him in front of others. His faceplates heat up slightly. Its cute. Grimlock doesn't hesitate to tell you what he feels about you, he can easily say an "I love you" but having to said back it him makes him feel all flustered. He just smiles like an idiot.

— He won't hesitate to flirt though. The heartfelt stuff might get him all mushy but standard flirting is something he can handle... sort of well. He'll lean in and try to hit you back with something more shameless; its like a game to him. A competition even— And Grimlock likes to get competitive.

— He isn't needy for your touch but he LOVES having your servos caress his face. Keep stroking the plating there with your thumbs. Please? He leans into the touch and basically melts when your trace the scars. His helm on your lap and all of a sudden he's the happiest mech alive.

— Quality time is something he gets plenty of with you. And its the most memorable moments of his lifetime as well. The countless soirees prepared with you by his side. Some of his most fun parties are only fun to him cause you're there with him.

— Probably the most tame Grimlock out there.
